On Friday 28th September, Blakehill hosted a coffee morning in the hall raising funds for the charity MacMillan. It started at 9am and visitors were greeted with scrumptious cakes supplied by children and staff. There were also the opportunities for a hand massage, face painting and jewellery cleaning. Other attractions to the event were the tombola with over 200 prizes as well as the ever popular raffle where there was the opportunity to win a £50 pound voucher for Jamie’s Italian, golf lessons, a Beaverbrooks’ silver necklace and many more prizes.

Thank you to everybody who donated, helped to run and came to our coffee morning to make it the success it was! We raised over £900!

Last week was an emotional week, as we have done a few things to remember our special friend and student at Blakehill, Isabelle or as she liked to be called Belle. To do this, the entire school gathered together to take an aerial view picture of a yellow and white children’s cancer ribbon.

The day before, Year 6 marked it out in preparation for the main event. Then gathering together as a school, we got ready as Tom (a drone pro) got into his position with his drone overlooking us. They took the picture and it looks good!

That day, the children in year 6 planted bluebell bulbs as a memory of Belle and a way to remember her. We did it in groups of 10 and planted 60! I think this is a great idea as it is special.

We will always remember Belle for the beautiful, smiley girl that she was!

On Friday the 12th October, 5J had their first class assembly all about their residential at Ingleborough hall where they did loads of outdoor activity like caving, gorge scrambling, tree climbing and lots of other exciting activities. As well as talking about the residential they went on, they shared their comparative reports on Idle and Clapham. One similarity was that they both have people who are famous for certain things that they did or invented. In the assembly, there were 4 people that read some of their work. They then showed us some country dancing videos before performing another dance that Miss Javed had taught them.

During this week the whole school has participated in a very fun activity to be safer when riding are bikes.

The year that started first was the very enthusiastic year – the receptions but they didn’t ride peddle bikes they went on push bikes. The fun thing about it was that near to the end of everyone’s lesson we got to play a game. The rule of the game was to be the last person in the circle and if you go out or your foot touches the ground then you are out of the game. The next year was Year 1 ,their day was on Tuesday, and they did the same thing but they still had the push bikes. After them was Year 2 and they got to use the peddle bikes because they are much older but they weren’t very big. They were taught how to signal if they were on the road and to turn left they stuck their left hand out same if they were going right they put their right hand out. The next day it was Year 3’s turn to learn how to be safer on the road. In the game they played the circle became smaller and smaller until someone won.

The next people were Year 4 and they did the same thing but when we went past the man we had to put the right hand out and give him a high five. When people entered this pink box they had to put the right hand out for 5 seconds.

I’m Libby and I am a Year 6 student. I am very glad to have this place as a blogger. One of the few things I like to do are play on my phone, go on my computer, play with my puppy, make Youtube videos and bake. I wanted to be a blogger because I felt like I have the potential and the SKILLZ to do it J. I am also good at typing ( she says making like 20 mistakes ) and I also love to make people laugh. I’m looking forward to making blogs in the future.

I want to be a blogger because I like computers. I also want to be a blogger because I can help school blogger type up about assembles. My favourite hobby is to play on my PC and I play lots of word and maths games. I like to eat sandwiches when I am playing video games because it’s hungry work.

I love playing on my own because I have a chance to figure out maths and word problems by my self.
